NY Mets 2006 NL East Champions!!
I believe in the church of baseball. I've tried all the major religions and most of the minor ones.I've worshipped Buddha, Allah, Brahma, Vishnu, Siva, trees, mushrooms and Isadora Duncan. I know things. For instance, there are 108 beads in a Catholic's rosary and there are 108 stitches in a baseball. When I learned that, I gave Jesus a chance. But it just didn't work out between us. The Lord laid too much guilt on me. I prefer metaphysics to theology. You see, there's no guilt in baseball. And it's never boring, which makes it like sex...It's a long season and you gotta trust it. I've tried them all, I really have, and the only church that truly feeds the soul, day in, day out, is the church of baseball - Annie Savoy Bull Durham

Photo Friday: Circle
My very first entry for Photo Friday
What better circle could there be. No, this isn't the most artistic photo. But it is a circle and it let's me squeeee a little that the Mets are 30 games over .500, 14.5 games in first place, just swept their second series in a row, won their 11th home game in a row and won their 7th game in a row. It's a good time to be Mets' fan.
And that....that is an excellent circle!!
